News / Re: DJ_O, Moderator Role Change
« on: May 28, 2011, 12:31:06 am »
I hope you get well DJ_O.  Never have I seen, anywhere else on the internet, a forum so accepting of other people, especially newer members like myself.  I have read a great deal of topics in the forums and well,  I am glad to have found a place like this.  You are the founder, so I will give most of the credit to you.  Creating a place... no a community of people this awesome is an amazing accomplishment.  I wish you luck with your problems in real life, and I know I can say this with confidence (even though I'm still a n00b  ;) ) everyone here at Omnimaga supports you and thanks you, for all past and future contributions to this website.

Wow. That is strange.  I started in lacrosse, and ended up in modern philosophy. (does that count?)  O.O

I feel like there would be no need to design a scoring system, that would just make it easier to program.

I tried using calc capture but with a wabbitemu configuration. Maybe I just didn't do it right?

So now that track is finally done I could actually work on my first game some more. I even made a screen shot .gif thing. It is pretty crappy but you get the basic idea.  I plan on adding difficulties (higher brick frequency, faster) and making it look a lot better.

Why does my application sometimes randomly defragment itself when exiting it?

Other Calculators / Re: Your first programs

The first program I uploaded was a Parametric Derivative and Arc Length using Symbolic.  It was pretty cool I guess. I am wayyy better at math stuff then games, but that is why I came here, to learn how to make stuff people actually enjoy! :P

Axe / Pixel Test Help
« on: May 16, 2011, 12:12:55 am »
Can somebody clear up exactly how pixel-test( works? For the Helicopter game I have been working on I just threw a bunch of them together, and I achieved a sort of half working collision detection.

I am using an 8x16 helicopter sprite, if that is important.  And the bricks I am colliding with are 3 pixels wide by 8 pixels tall.

Papa Murphy's:  My favorite pizza hands-down.  You have to bake it, but that's part of what keeps prices cheap(er) and reasonable.  You get what you pay for--a rich pizza that makes your mouth water.  And nothing beats a Papa-Murphy's Chicken Garlic Gormuet Pizza


I am only a fan of there "different" pizzas.  When it comes to pepperoni and sausage and what others would consider classic types, there are others I prefer.  But yes, their Chicken Garlic Gourmet Pizza is amazing!

General Calculator Help / Re: Calculator headphones
« on: May 14, 2011, 01:06:32 pm »
Ok good to know because I plugged them in and then tried to scroll to my program but it took forever! So then I just set it up to hit enter and then plugged the headphones in  :P

General Calculator Help / Calculator headphones

Does using headphones on your calculator always slow it down to a crawl, or is it just the pair I am using? 

Also something interesting I found, an xbox live headset has a 2.5 mm jack, just like the calculator.  I haven't used that though.

Other Calculators / Defragmenting

Can somebody please explain what the calculator is doing when it says "defragmenting"?   What does this process involve and why is it done?
